Thin Man Mobile Pantry Cabinet-White Review

Thin Man Mobile Pantry Cabinet-White
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
My husband put this together for me and it looked wonderful and held everything I needed it to hold. However, the wheels would not roll....so a trip to the local hardware store and viola it had new wheels and rolled as needed. This unite worked for about a year and then the other night we heard a large crash. Upon investigating we found it had come tumbling down and there were food products all over the place. Unfortunately on the top shelf I had a glass botttle of worchestershire sauce and another bottle of soy sauce plus several glass jars of pickles (sweet & dill) What a mess! Over the year we had the unit the pegs must have worked out and became loose as we pulled it out and in of the space besides the fridge. So beware and glue the shelves (pegs) in so that this does not happen to you. Otherwise it was a great idea and a big help storing our extras and making a space useable that had not been.

The quality of this item is so poor. The cart collapsed as soon as I put a few items on it. The rails actually split apart. I wrote to the seller but I never heard back from them.

This is the most clever item when you have lots of berries in the frig. Just rinse, drain and put on cover. Keeps berries so fresh. No more sitting in water after draining.
Very handy. I am thinking of getting two as we have both blueberries and raspberries in our garden right now.

Thin Man Pantry 4036 Review

Thin Man Pantry 4036
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Durable Furniture Pieces Thin Man Pantry Cabinet white 4036 (I would have given this a zero-star rating if it was possible) After finally getting one side together; matching dowels with holes (half that weren't as deep as they were supposed to be), the other side just wouldn't fit tightly or line up; I glued excessively, taping with a hammer, and it finally seemed that it would be ok - wrong. It worked for about 4 months - including holding up to heavy cans (on the bottom shelf) but then, one day, I gave it a pull by the handle to bring it out and it just started to wabble. I got what I needed then gently pushed it back in. Now I try not to have to pull it out at all - it leans like the Leaning Tower of Piza (is that right?) and I'm afraid to give it another pull; I just know everything will come crashing down - glass, plastic, powder and liquid (ugh). I'm now looking for a more sturdy unit, perhaps metal/wire, but am not having a whole lot of luck. Please, don't waste your money on this, you will be greatly disappointed and discouraged!

Magnetic Bamboo Knife Block Review

Magnetic Bamboo Knife Block
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
If you are considering this knife block, you have to make sure of several things first.
1. You don't have more than 6 knives to put in it. There are only 6 slots.
2. None of your knives are too big to fit in the slots. The slot dimensions are 10.75" x 2" x 9/32". The 2 middle slots are slightly larger, at 2.25". So your blade can't be more than about 10.5" or 270mm long.
3. Make sure your handles are wider than the blade, so that it stops the blade from going all the way in. This shouldn't be a problem for most knives.
4. Most kitchen shears will not fit into this block.
The magnets are super strong. It also comes with magnets you can screw on, so you can put the block on the side of a cabinet or wall. And I love bamboo for just about anything. For a single male who doesn't do a whole lot of fancy cooking, and who doesn't own a bunch of knives, This is almost perfect for me. I wish they could've fitted in a slot for shears, but as I build my knife collection, I'll eventually end up buying a real knife block. For now this is sufficient.

Bormioli Rocco 388550SB4021990 Frigoverre Square Glass Food-Storage Containers with Lids, Set of 3 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
The Bormioli Frigoverre Square Glass Storage containers are absolutely fantastic. We have the square and circle sets, and use them on a daily basis for food storage. We love the products so much that we've gifted them to friends and family members. The heavy-duty glass is very durable. We've gone from freezer to microwave without a problem. The plastic lids make a great seal, and pasta sauce has not caused permanent stains like it does to other storage medium. Due to the different sizes, we can store them in a tight space in the cabinet when they are not being used. Excellent design. Excellent product!

Sleek and stylish, this set of three food-storage containers makes a smart choice for preserving leftovers, storing dry goods, packing on-the-go lunches, and more. The units feature clear, tempered-glass bases that resist staining and allow for a quick view of inside contents, while their compact, square shapes save space by stacking neatly with other containers in the refrigerator. Equipped with corner tabs for easy removal, the containers' durable propylene lids provide extra-secure, airtight seals that ensure spill-proof use, even when filled with sloshy soups, sauces, and other liquid-based foods. Best of all, the handsome containers move effortlessly from the pantry or fridge to the dishwasher for safe, thorough cleanup. Made in Italy, the 7-1/2-ounce container measures approximately 5-4/5 by 5-4/5 by 3-3/4 inches, the 17-ounce container measures approximately 7-1/2 by 7-1/2 by 3-3/4 inches, and the 47-ounce container measures approximately 8-4/5 by 8-4/5 by 3-3/4 inches.

Tupperware Cold Keeper with Deviled Egg Trays Review

Tupperware Cold Keeper with Deviled Egg Trays
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I have had difficulty in the past storing and transporting deviled eggs. The Tupperware Cold Keeper with Deviled Egg Trays was the answer to my problem. It has three individual trays, which each hold eight deviled eggs. The trays fit neatly into a lidded container, which seals well. The container appears to be deep enough to allow ice to be placed beneath the trays with the lid intact, though I have yet to attempt this potential method of keeping the deviled eggs cool outside of a refrigerator. The product is of high quality and I expect it to last for many years. I regret that it was made in Mexico, but I am not aware of an American-made product which is similar to this one.

Progressive International Herb Keeper Review

Progressive International Herb Keeper
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I use a lot of fresh herbs in my cooking, but they always go bad quickly in the refrigerator -- what a waste. I bought this with the hopes of extending the life of my herbs just a little longer, and I'm not disappointed. My herbs last at least three times longer with no difference in taste nor texture. You do have to change the water regularly though.

Keep your herbs fresh and tasty with this Fresh Herb Keeper from Progressive International, which can keep bunches of herbs fresh for up to three weeks in the refrigerator. You can even store multiple herbs at once without worrying about crossing flavoring. The herb keeper's durable plastic narrow tube is great for storing taller herbs on the stem, from thyme and oregano to basil and rosemary. It fits in the door of most refrigerators for quick access when you need to add just a bit more flavor to a roast or soup. It measures approximately 4 inches in diameter by 10-3/4 inches. Dishwasher safe.

Rubbermaid 7J67 Easy Find Lid Square 7-Cup Food Storage Container Review

Rubbermaid 7J67 Easy Find Lid Square 7-Cup Food Storage Container
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
My only disappointment is that they still break down on high microwave heat. I was hoping with new types of heat resistant plastics that this problem would no longer be an issue. I sent my husband off with a bowl of pasta in tomato sauce and I was upset to see that my new bowl was ruined by the heat and had reddish sauce embedded at the broken down plastic level. I did purchase several different sizes and have been very useful with food storage and keeps the food fresh for quite some time. Just need to make them more heat resistant and less absorbable of sauces and such. Then it would be a perfect product. They also stack very nicely and wash up well under normal use. Don't heat on high!

Rubbermaid's new Easy Find Lid collection of food-storage containers makes container and lid organization a breeze. Designed with space efficiency in mind, the lids and bases nest together so that they take up less room when stored in a cabinet or drawer, plus the lids snap to the bottom of the bases and to each other, which means no more searching around for the right-size lid.

The square shape allows for conveniently stacking the containers when placed on shelves or in the refrigerator, while super-clear bases provide better visibility of inside contents. The covered containers can be used in the refrigerator, freezer, or microwave, and clean up quickly by hand or in the dishwasher. Great for storing sugar, coffee, crackers, or leftovers, this 7-cup food-storage container measures approximately 7 by 7 by 4-2/3 inches.

FIFO Mini Can Tracker- Food Storage Canned Foods Organizer/Rotater/Dispenser: Kitchen, Cupboard, Pantry- Rotate Up To 30 Cans Review

FIFO Mini Can Tracker- Food Storage Canned Foods Organizer/Rotater/Dispenser: Kitchen, Cupboard, Pantry- Rotate Up To 30 Cans
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I must disagree with the previous reviewer. I have several of these in my pantry and they do the job quite well. They will take large diameter cans (such as 26 oz. tomato cans), regular size cans (i.e. vegetables) and family size cans (like the tall, 26 oz. Family size soup cans). Their biggest limitation is that they can accept ONLY those 3 can sizes because the can slots can only be created in 3 set widths. For that reason, I use not only this type of can storage, but also the "Cansolidator" also available on Amazon. The cansolidator cannot be used with the large 26 oz. tomato cans, but works beautifully for other cans, including tuna, small mushrooms, small evapo milk, as well as regular vegetable cans, etc. because the cans slot width is almost infinitely adjustable.
I love to cook so I try to maintain a fairly extensive pantry. The FIFO and Cansolidator products in combination have solved the problem of the cans that expired 5 years ago only being discovered when they've become a leaky science experiment somewhere in the back of the cupboard. With these organizers it's easy to see how much of each product you have as well as being assured that when you select a can, you're getting the oldest can.
One piece of advice about the FIFO storage: Decide which cans you want to use and pre-assemble the whole thing, then put it on your shelf. Adding additional pieces to it once it's already in place can certainly be done, but it's much more awkward than pre-assembling.

Progressive International Fruit and Vegetable Keeper and Onion Keeper Set Review

Progressive International Fruit and Vegetable Keeper and Onion Keeper Set
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I recently joined an organic produce delivery service. Every other week, I get a gorgeous box fresh from the farm. Which means that the produce I get might get eaten right away, or might need to kick it in the fridge for a week until my hubby and I can get to it.
I can't vouch for the onion keeper yet, but the small Produce Saver has been great. The sliced carrots, cauliflower, and asparagus I have kept in it so far have been as fresh and vibrant the day I took them out as the day I put them in. I have left stuff in there for at least 10 days with no problem. Very impressed with this product, I have the Berry Keeper and two of the Lettuce Keepers as well, and they are all wonderful products.

FIFO Can Tracker- Food Storage Canned Foods Organizer/Rotater/Dispenser: Kitchen, Cupboard, Pantry- Rotate Up To 54 Cans Review

FIFO Can Tracker- Food Storage Canned Foods Organizer/Rotater/Dispenser: Kitchen, Cupboard, Pantry- Rotate Up To 54 Cans
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Just got two of these and set them up in my cellar.
Set up is quite easy, you just have to snap (force) the spacer pegs into the holes, then twist to secure. I had to use a wrench, as suggested in the instructions, to turn the pegs.
In the sample picture, you can see green cans on the left and right sections, and yellow in the center. The center yellow cans are separated by three shorter pegs. You can choose to put those in, or just use three of the longer pegs instead, which would give you three sections of larger (15 oz) cans. It comes with extra pegs so you can pick.
The cool thing is if your shelf is long enough, you can attach two units together - so you just keep going after you build the first three sections (as shown in the picture) and add the next three on, with a section in between, instead of 3+3=6, you get 3+3+1 (in the middle) = 7. Each unit comes with six extra pegs, three short ones for the smaller section if you want it, and three extra to attach another whole unit to the side of the first.
Each section holds 16 or more cans, I don't know, I don't have that many cans of one type. I ended up putting a [...] case (12 cans) in the top, which means they roll out the bottom, and then putting three or four other cans in the middle. The middle ones don't join the roll toward the bottom until there's about five of the bottom cans left.
The shelves are made of a strong sturdy plastic, and a smart design.
They don't hold the big soup cans (18-19 oz) just the regular 15 oz cans.

I purchased the small FridgeSmart medium and the small for use in our kitchen. We frequently buy items in bulk and need to wash and keep separate. The small container is perfect for grapes, lemons and other fruit. It is also ideal for oranges and brocolli crowns. This container when set properly will keep your fresh food fresh. It is also easy to clean. The only drawback was that the lid is somewhat difficult to apply. I also wish it had the valve settings like the medium one does. Overall, this container helps me in the kitchen.

This has to be one of the best deals around, even at twice the price, because it replaces so many other things, and is so durable.
The containers work nicely for food storage, but they also can be used for cooking. They go from freezer to oven or microwave, and are dishwasher safe as well. Pyrex is practically unbreakable. With normal use, this set could easily last a lifetime. At the current price, they actually cost less than plastic containers, which do not have either the durability or versatility.
If all that's not enough, consider the health benefits. Glass will not leech plasticiser into your food, and there's no dioxin to worry about when microwaving.
I don't usually rave about kitchen items, but after I recieved this set, I rushed back to order another. I'm getting rid of most of the plastics in my cabinets today!

Lipper International SOHO 20-Piece Large Board Magnetic Spice Rack with Tins, Stainless Steel
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I love the space saving capability of this design, and the ease of access with the tins (just turn for shake or pour capability). HOWEVER - the tins are not air-tight, and the plastic cover on the tins is reactive to some spices. My cumin became encased in a plastiky mess, and the salt becomes a salt block within days. Also, due that the spices are stored on their sides, there's constantly a mess of spice-jumble on the counter under the spice tins. I still use the tins for spices that I use up really quickly - oregano, marjoram, etc.... - but have to keep a separate stock of anything that reacts with moisture and the plastic tops (trial and error). I would look into other storage options if you're not tight on space.
